10:03Every time I see that loaf of bread, I flip.
10:06Some night, Moose, you go home with me.
10:09Like tonight, kid?
10:11Keep counting, Moose.
10:13He's just talking and don't get shook.
10:1680, 85, that's the kind of music I like.
10:20The sweet whisper of them greenbacks kissing each other.
10:23Oh, man.
10:24Well, it's better than the cowboy singing those lullabies.
10:27You'd better like to hear him sing.
10:29Or he stomps the means of fuzzers here.
10:31We're scared, silly.
10:34It's 200 even.
10:37Mucho gracias.
10:40Split it up on the outside.
10:41You guys bother me.
10:43For you, Moose, anything.
10:46Let's cut out and grab some grubs.
10:53Some guy will stick a shiv in you someday, Moose.
10:56Hoarding all that bread.
10:58That'll be the day, kid.
11:01Punks.
11:13You gotta admit, though, them kids really move.
11:17Yeah.
11:18Someday, somebody's gonna have to slow them down.
11:20They're getting a little too cocky.
11:23Somebody like the Moose?
11:24If you lose those parts, the junk detail will be here first thing in the morning.
11:29Don't worry, boss.
11:31Ain't they always?
11:32Yeah, always.
11:34See you in the morning.
11:35entertain your lawyer
11:45said my sweet and loving wife
11:50They hit hard and fast.
11:55There's no amateurs in this outfit.
11:57Oh, no.
11:58These guys are artists with their touches.
12:00Come in.
12:00Look at this.
12:03It must have taken five or six of them to up in this baby.
12:06Well, that's worth the energy.
12:08Makes it easy to get at the goodies.
12:10The owner says he ran out of gas.
12:12But he's sure he filled it up in town.
12:14Well, I must have drained most of it.
12:16Just left enough to get out here.
12:19No, Tom.
12:20There's too much margin for error that way.
12:22They drain it completely dry
12:24and then put enough back in to call their shots.
12:28Yeah, yeah.
12:28I guess you're right.
12:29It must have been that way, all right?
12:31Come on.
12:32Are you gonna be here all day?
12:33It's getting late.
12:34There's no chance of picking up any tire marks on this stuff.
12:38It's way past supper time.
12:40Yeah, it's a chopper's, all right.
12:41They're getting as regular as a TV show.
12:44Well, I'll put the junk detail on it the first thing in the morning.
12:47Meanwhile, you have your insurance agents giving me all the numbers.
12:50All right.
12:51And we'll prowl these spots.
12:52Maybe one of these days we'll get a break.
12:55Look, I don't care where we eat.
12:56Let's just eat, okay?
12:58Did I hear you say something about being hungry?
13:00Oh!
13:03What's that look?
13:04Feather, chicken feather.
13:05It must be from one of your other chicks.
13:07Oh, come on.
13:08That's a fine thing.
13:09Not a single clue.
13:11Hiya, Susie.
13:29How about a kiss?
13:30Oh, she's beautiful in them pants.
13:33You know, it's not that I like girls so much, but there's something about the way they're built.
13:37How about five cheeseburgers, cutie?
13:39Yeah.
13:40I admit that I like girls, but girls don't like me.
13:44The cruiser keeps telling me to get contact lenses.
13:47Sure.
13:48They give your eyes that, uh, that dreamy look.
13:51Let's all go over to Susie's pad after midnight.
13:55I could go ape for you, baby.
13:56That's a lot.
13:57What I do, baby, kiss me.
14:01Hey, where's all the girls?
14:03You guys got anthrax or something?
14:05Get a load of that big smooch.
14:07Talk about tall in the saddle.
14:08Yeah, couple of fanatics.
14:11They go wall to wall.
14:13Get a load of the shimmers on that tank.
14:16I got the message, man.
14:18I got the message.
14:20Put your tools away.
14:21These aren't exactly business hours.
14:23I bet.
14:24The fanatics ought to be ashamed.
14:26Chomping up a big love nest right here in front of us young people.
14:29Things like that is a bad influence on Ben.
14:31Go on, snooper.
14:33Pick up a couple extra.
14:36Shouldn't shake him all up like that, Ben.
14:38You know he'll do anything.
14:40Gotta keep our boy happy.
14:53You drinking?
14:55Only with my eyes.
14:57Here, keep the change.
14:58Thanks.
15:01Look, Flip's got a place case nice for the chicks, maybe.
15:05Give me the layout, Flip.
15:06I'll cruise it and call in right after school.
15:13Get a load of that candy and cake.
15:16Wow.
15:17That's what I call genuine laughing plaster.
15:21Well, thank you.
15:23Gosh, you're my star.
15:24Pure allure, all right, but eyeball the fuzz.
15:29Bet we'll snooper in.
15:30That ain't fuzz.
15:31Cruiser calls it fuzz.
15:33That's good enough for me.
15:34He can smell a kid or Catalina.
15:37You square and with a joint out of his own fuzz.
15:40Fade.
15:44He served a lot faster inside.
15:46Even faster if you went straight in the kitchen.
15:48Served yourself, wouldn't it?
15:51You don't get merchandise like that in no supermarket.
15:53How does fuzz rate that carriage glass?
15:56Hey, that reminds me.
15:57I got a date with Gypsy tonight.
15:58I'm cutting out.
15:59Yeah, we better get out of here, too.
16:01I don't like the clientele in this place.
16:02It's getting lousy.
16:04Hey, what's the action?
16:05We're getting out.
16:06You guys better do the same.
16:07That smoocher comes up for air.
16:08He's going to start screaming for those hubcaps.
16:10Big men.
16:25Scared out by a little heath.
16:27Yeah.
16:29You know, I think this fuzzy little car is sick.
16:32Hothead.
16:33Might need an emergency operation.
16:35Oh, I agree.
16:37By all means, let's operate, Doctor.
16:40Scalpel?
16:43Scalpel, Doctor.
17:01What's the matter?
17:04I don't know.
17:05Well, it's start.
17:11Say, Tom, don't you have any hubcaps?
17:13Hey, my battery's gone.
17:15Your radio's gone, too, darling.
17:17What?
17:18And your carburetor.
17:19You've been stripped, pal.
17:21Oh, no.
17:24Really, Tom?
17:26All right, all right.
17:27Now, don't you dare laugh.
17:29All right, you either.
17:30Excuse me, Tom, but it is kind of funny.
17:32I don't say anything funny.
17:34All right.
17:38All right.
17:38All right.
17:39All right.
17:55Where have you been, you lazy?
17:57Good for nothing.
17:57and I've been waiting for you for hours.
17:59Hiya, Pop.
18:00What's the matter?
18:01We got to get the store.
18:03That's what's the matter.
18:05You know my truck's broke down.
18:07No sweat.
18:08I'll take, Mom.
18:09Your mother's cooking supper.
18:11She can't get away.
18:13I'll go then.
18:14No sweat.
18:14What you need?
18:15Well, as a matter of fact,
18:18she don't need nothing.
18:19I'm a little shortened, son.
18:24You got this money on you?
18:26Sure I got money.
18:27Get in.
18:28You know they won't sell it to me.
18:29What's all the fuss about?
18:30If you're out of booze,
18:31why don't you just say so?
18:33That's a good boy, son.
18:34I knew you'd get it.
18:35Yes, sir.
18:45Oh, yes, sir.
18:47Right.
18:49Oh, yes, sir.
18:50I've had more police cooperation
18:51than I've ever had before in my life.
18:53The auto theft and junkyard boys
18:55are all over the place.
18:56They've given it the fine-tooth comb treatment.
18:59They'll come up with absolutely nothing.
19:00Nothing.
19:01Well, we're up against
19:02a pretty smooth operation.
19:04The chopper's chopped again yesterday
19:06on Route 18,
19:07dismantling a new automobile
19:09in broad daylight.
19:10Later that evening,
19:12investigators had their own car
19:14stripped off.
19:15Well, sir, I...
19:16I don't need any more help, sir.
19:18I just need a little more time
19:20and I think I can come up with something.
19:23Oh, yes, sir.
19:25Yes, sir.
19:26Right.
19:28Look, beautiful,
19:29if you read that bit just one more time,
19:31I'm going to fire you
19:32and I've never been more sincere
19:33about anything before in my life.
19:35I'm sorry, Tom.
19:37Really, I am.
19:38Look, don't get so shook about it.
19:40Well, of course I'm shook.
19:43I'm one half as shook as Frank is
19:45in the police department.
19:47They're laughing those poor guys
19:49out of City Hall.
19:51Chief of Police has even called
19:52a special meeting.
19:52Frank called me and asked me
19:53if I'd go with him.
19:55Oh, that poor guy
19:55feels like an idiot.
19:57Imagine how that makes you feel.
19:58Oh, thanks.
20:00Thanks.
20:07Look, um,
20:08usually you aren't going to let me
20:09use that little car of yours,
20:10aren't you,
20:11while mine's being fixed?
20:12Well, sure.
20:14On, um,
20:15one condition, though.
20:16Oh.
20:16I'd like something left
20:17for a souvenir.
20:19Maybe a couple bolts
20:20or a wheel
20:21or, you know.
20:22Hey, cut it out.
20:34What's so interesting, genius?
20:37Get away, gypsy.
20:39Can't you see?
20:40I'm reading about
20:41a new kind of axle.
20:43Axle?
20:45How can you get all bugged
20:47about an axle?
20:49Oh, listen.
20:50With this little trick,
20:52I can get another 20,
20:54maybe 30 miles per hour
20:55and with less RPM.
20:58Well,
20:59that's what I don't understand
21:01about men.
21:02Here we have a pool
21:04and a hi-fi
21:05and you talk about
21:07axles and RPMs
21:08and all that junk.
21:10Well, this is what
21:11I don't understand
21:12about women.
21:13They're always
21:14nagging a guy.
21:16Oh, I just mean to.
21:17I don't want to nag.
21:19You see,
21:19well,
21:21that's why my pop
21:22walked out on Mom.
21:25Gee,
21:26I sure wish
21:26I'd have known
21:27my old man.
21:28He liked speed, too.
21:31Guess he was
21:31a really great flyer.
21:33He was the hottest pilot
21:34in his outfit.
21:36I bet he was cute,
21:38just like you.
21:39The Japs dived on him
21:43when he was drifting
21:44down in a parachute.
21:46Machine gun.
21:48Poor Pop.
21:49He didn't have a chance.
21:51I, um,
21:55I bet I can beat you.
21:57Three laps?
21:58Freestyle?
21:59Come on.
21:59Come on.
22:13Is this everything?
22:14I'm not getting you
22:17awake, am I?
22:19Oh, no, officer.
22:21It's just that
22:21we do so little
22:23business here,
22:23I sort of got
22:25in the habit
22:25of taking a little
22:26nap in the sun
22:27once in a while.
22:29According to this ledger,
22:30you don't do much business.
22:31You mean that's
22:31all there is?
22:32Oh, absolutely, officer.
22:34My old Moose
22:35wouldn't buy a Hershey bar
22:36without writing it
22:37down in that dirt book.
22:38Yeah, I'll bet.
22:40I can't afford
22:41to take any chances.
22:43Not if you want
22:43to stay in business.
22:46Did you find anything?
22:49What are you doing
22:49with that thing?
22:50It's protection.
22:52Never know
22:52where to get held up
22:53around here.
22:54There are thieves
22:55after my kind
22:55of merchandise,
22:56too, you understand.
22:57I understand this.
22:58Somebody around here
22:59is dealing hot stuff
23:00and we find a party
23:01they're going to
23:01cool off up the river.
23:03And you better get rid
23:03of that cannon
23:04and it might get you
23:04in trouble.
23:05Give him that gun, Dennis.
23:06Drop in any time.
23:08Don't worry.
23:08We will.
23:23Stinking junk detail.
23:25I'd like to let them
23:26have both barrels.
23:28Boss, that stuff's
23:29piling up.
23:30It's all I can do
23:31to hide it.
23:32Them kids are bringing
23:32it in faster
23:33than we can get rid
23:34of it.
23:35Yeah.
23:36Maybe we ought to

29:01You're blocking a highway.
29:09Mobile unit.
29:10Bandits.
29:10Bandits, cut out.
29:11What are they, layers?
29:13No, they're not layers and they're not for sale.
29:15Now burn out, mister.
29:16We love them chickens.
29:17Okay, okay.
29:18You don't have to get so hard about it.

30:03If we reverse, we'll be going right back to the cops.

30:14Hey, what's going on?

30:28Here they come.
30:29We'll beat him to the corner.
30:30Yeah, but if we turn right, we're heading straight for him.
30:32and if we turn left, we're going back to the wreck.
30:36J.B., J.B., can you see us?
30:38Which one do we turn, left or right over?
30:40Turn left, mobile unit.
30:42I repeat, turn left.
30:44I can see you.
30:45Flip, Snooper, give him the farmer routine.
31:04Get it?
31:04Hey, what's going on?
31:19Foss, keep it quiet.
31:20Howdy, officer.
31:37Was we going too fast?
31:38We're looking for a stolen car.
31:40Have you seen anything from a blue car with a white top?
31:42No, sir, but I seen a green car with a white top.
31:46It passed us back there, please.
31:48Well, that was a white car, wasn't it?
31:49With a red top.
31:51What was it, a blue car or a white car?
31:53I don't know, but it was going that way.
31:56No, it wasn't.
31:57It is coming this way.
31:58All right, let's start all over again.
32:17Hey, who's that guy thinking he is?
32:18He pretty hit you, fellas.
32:19Darn, I hate them smart alecks.
32:24All right, you guys can go.
32:25Thanks, just a second.
32:26Just sorry we can't help you, none.
32:28There's nothing on wheels that'll catch up with a cruiser.
32:40Just like this when you found it, huh?
32:42Just like that.
32:43It didn't stay stolen very long.
32:44Well, they never do.
32:46What do you think, Tom?
32:48Well, insurance rates are going up again.
32:51The choppers.
32:52Sure, who else?
32:53This job was done by experts.
32:55You say?
32:58You say this was a hot shot call?
33:04The car had just been stolen, huh?
33:06Yes, sir.
33:06The owner said not more than ten minutes.
33:08I let him go.
33:08He was late for work.
33:09How much time do you figure to do this?
33:13Well, it's not a complete job.
33:15Well, I'd say at least ten minutes.
33:20Ten minutes?
33:22You want an introduction?
33:25Ten minutes, huh?
33:27That would put you and the choppers in this area about the same time.
33:30Did you see anybody?
33:31Nobody that could have done it.
33:33Did you see anybody who couldn't have done it?
33:35There was a kid in a hot rod.
33:36He almost ran into us when we were talking to a truck driver.
33:38But he came from the wrong direction.
33:40Kid in a hot rod?
33:41Was he alone?
33:42Yes, sir.
33:43There isn't much traffic on this road.
33:46Well, officer...
33:47Liz, will you please wait for us in the car?
33:55What did I do?
33:57Will you just please wait for us in the car?
34:00Big deal.
34:01Now, if you don't mind, let's get back to that truck driver.
34:04Just a couple of kids hauling poultry.
34:06Poultry?
34:07What kind of poultry?
34:08Chickens.
34:09A whole mess of them in crates.
34:11White chickens?
34:12Yeah.
34:13Come to think of it, wait.
34:16What's this?
34:17Well, the last time the choppers hit,
34:19Liz picked a chicken feather just like that off my sleeve.
34:38Hey, cruiser.
34:39I want to talk to you.
34:41Why not?
34:43Snooper says you had a close call today.
34:46What's the matter?
34:46Are you worried about us?
34:48No, kid.
34:49I worry about me.
34:51You guys have been pulling too many jobs lately.
34:54I think you ought to lay off for a while.
34:56You really think so, Moose?
34:59Yeah.
35:00You guys are getting too hot.
35:01You got the junk detail coming here every day.
35:04Well, that's your problem.
35:05That's right.
35:07The answer is we don't do no more business for a while.
35:11Here's the tally, boss.
35:13We owe him 128 bucks.
35:16Hey, Torch, you want to hear something funny?
35:18The moose thinks we ought to knock off for a while.
35:21That's a guesser.
35:22What's the matter, chubby?
35:23We making too big a dent in your bankroll or something?
35:26I'm just trying to tell you that for your own good.
35:29You got to get smart.
35:30Don't do no more jobs until the heat's off.
35:32Well, maybe we like it hot.
35:34Then you better take your business someplace else.
35:36What's so funny?
35:40You are, Moose.
35:42If you think you can shut us off.
35:44You'll buy anything we bring in as long as we're in business.
35:48One word to the junk detail and you're out of business.
35:51Well, that's even funnier, isn't it, Torch?
35:55Listen, fat stuff.
35:57If we go down, you go down and don't you forget it.
36:02This whole operation was your idea.
36:04We were just a bunch of punk kids stealing hubcaps for kicks.
36:08But who showed us where the big money is?
36:11And who rigged up the torches and showed us how to chop a car?
36:16I never even knew what the word meant
36:18until you and I started having our little talks.
36:21That's right, cruiser.
36:23And you know what else, Moose?
36:24You'll even get an extra bolt for contributing to the delinquency of minors.
36:29Say the word, boss.
36:32The word's 120.
36:34What?
36:34Eight.
36:36Sure, boys.
36:38Only let's make it 130, shall we?
36:41It's a nice round figure.
36:44Cowboy, put that away.
36:47After all, like they say, we're partners.
36:50Here.
36:50There it is.
36:54Green.
36:54My favorite color.
36:56Ah, you Ulysses.
36:57Take me to your leader.
37:00So long, partner.
37:01Come on.
37:03I've got one just like that, cowboy.
37:06Someday I'll show it to you.
37:07Why didn't you just lay down and let them walk all over you?
37:32Don't be as stupid as they are.
37:35Any trouble right now and we'd all end up in the junk.
37:38But tomorrow, that's going to be a different story.
37:41What's tomorrow going to change?
37:43Right, tomorrow, I want everything those junk punks ever lifted out of here.
37:49I want this yard thick clean.
37:51Dump the stuff at cut prices if you have to.
37:53Yeah, but boss, we'll lose dough.
37:56I'll get it back.
37:58I'll break in a new bunch of rats.
38:00Might even expand a bit and go in for the big stuff.
38:04But I don't want nothing here that'll tie me in with the choppers.
38:07We still got the truck and the chickens.
38:10Now, after they drive out of here on their next job,
38:14I close the gate behind them,
38:16and they can yell copper all they want,
38:18but they can't prove nothing.
38:23They'll be going any minute now.
38:48Taking the chicks out for a little air?
38:51Any objections, partner?
38:53None at all, partner!
39:02Lock the gate.
39:04There'll be trouble when they come back and can't get in.
39:07Yeah.
39:11Maybe we ought to tip off the cops and make sure they don't get back.
39:15You mean think?
39:16Just a nightie.
39:19I get the ideas.
39:21You just lock that gate.
39:22Then maybe you ought to oil up that pea shooter of yours, huh?
39:27Gonna wear my holster?
39:29I can draw faster.
39:30Why not?
39:34Pow!
39:35Pow!
39:35Pow!
39:36Pow!
39:36Pow!
39:37Oh, come on!
39:38Lock that gate!
39:39Hi, Jim.
39:53Hi, Jim.
39:53Should have known we couldn't hide from you.
39:55Well, you almost did.
39:56I just about got lost coming up the back way.
40:08Say, meet Tom Hart, National Car Theft Bureau.
40:11Jim Bradford, Worldwide Broadcasting.
40:13Well, I listen to you every night.
40:16Thanks.
40:16Uh, almost.
40:17You want to broadcast from up here?
40:19No, we'll just record now and put it on the air later.
40:22Uh-huh.
40:23You know what's happening?
40:24They filled me in down at headquarters.
40:26Sounded pretty interesting.
40:28Thanks.
40:29You think we'll see any action?
40:31Well, we think so.
40:33Take out, it's get awful tiring, but we have good reason to believe the kids will hit pretty
40:37soon.
40:38You think the choppers are kids, then?
40:40Well, we're pretty sure.
40:41We don't know.
40:46Start talking.
40:46Here comes Officer Martin.
40:48Ladies and gentlemen, this is Jim Bradford, your news reporter, on a hilltop overlooking
40:54Highway 18 east of the city.
40:57This is a police department stakeout.
40:59It's one of the many attempts of your police force to apprehend a gang of auto wreckers
41:03who've been given the name of the choppers because of the manner in which they operate.
41:07Right now, I'm watching Officer Frank Martin in plain clothes.
41:11He's in the act of running out of gas on a deserted section of highway, just as you
41:15and I have done at least once in our lives.
41:18He's getting out of his car, cursing himself for passing that last gas station.
41:23Now he looks about for help, and there is none.
41:25There never is.
41:26There's nothing that he can do but start walking back to the nearest gas station.
41:31And now he's starting out to walk.
41:34Here on the hill, there's nothing to do but just wait.
41:39Perhaps nothing will happen on the highway here below us today, but of this we can be
41:43almost certain.
41:44Somewhere in the area today, a gang of car strippers will strike, and you and I will pay some
41:49of the bills and higher insurance premiums.
41:51I understand that you're not fishing on this, but you've really got a lead, Frank.
41:58Is this just for you?
41:59Just for me.
42:00Some kid with a $5,000 hot rod.
42:05Yeah, five G's.
42:07He's been known to be in the vicinity as the Choppings.
42:10He might be a lookout.
42:11We've been tailing him and getting reports on him.
42:13Hey, Frank, car 13 reports that Brian kid is heading right this way.
42:19That's the one.
42:23This is Fleming in car 9.
42:25Tell car 13 to drop back and give the suspect room.
42:28I repeat, give him room.
42:29J.B. calling mobile unit, J.B. calling mobile unit, stand by.
42:42I'm on target, Charlie Blue One.
42:44I'll buzz it and let you know.
42:45Over and out.
42:46Hey, what's the big idea?
42:49Never mind, baby.
42:52I might have a job to do.
42:58Hi, man.
42:59Here comes something.
43:09He didn't stop.
43:11It's not supposed to.
43:12It's just a lookout.
43:13If he finds everything clear, then the Choppers come in.
43:15And right away.
43:16Well, how can he contact him?
43:18We haven't figured that out yet.
43:19What's going on around here?
43:40Look, baby.
43:42I told you I might have a job to do.
43:45Job?
43:47Well, what kind of a job?
43:49Never mind.
43:50There they are.
43:56You were right, Tom.
43:57And so help me.
43:58They're carrying a load of chickens.
44:00Chickens?
44:00Mobile unit.
44:24Fuzz.
44:25Emergency.
44:25Cut out.
44:26I repeat, Fuzz.
44:27Emergency.
44:28Cut out.
44:30Go.
44:30Let's go.
44:42That's it.
44:44Tell them to shut off the road.
44:45That's Hennessey in Car 5.
44:56Poultry truck with suspects headed your way.
44:58Roadblock per plan.
44:59I repeat, roadblock per plan.
45:01Hang on.
45:17We're going to play chicken.
45:18It's Calloway in Car 9 to Lieutenant Fleming.
45:32We just got pushed off the road by the choppers.
45:34Caution.
45:35Seven and eight should have to chase them down this road here.
45:53You're going to have to use that?
45:55I hope not.
45:57I hope not, too.
45:58I bet they're just kids.
46:00Yeah, probably.
46:05Roadblock.
46:10Roadblock.
46:35This car is sampled to Lieutenant Fleming.
46:43The hot rods of the Brian Katt's headed your way.
46:47There's a girl in the car, Lieutenant.
46:51A hot rod.
46:52Hey!
47:08Head for the big deal!
47:14If I go to the big deal, we can get fenced in there.
47:17It's part of the plan.
47:18Give us three minutes, we can have this truck chopped up into little pieces.
47:21and no one can prove a thing.
47:23And what's cruising doing with Gypsy in his car?
47:25Stay in the car.
47:49Stay in the car.
47:49Stay in the car.
47:55Hey, what are you doing?
48:07The cops are right on our tails.
48:08Moose!
48:09Out of here, you squirts.
48:10I don't know you.
48:17Looks like it's too late to run.
48:19Remember, you're in this, too.
48:21Not me.
48:23I'm holding you for the cops.
48:25I'm a respectable citizen.
48:27I've seen my duty, and I've done it.
48:29Why, you dirty fink.
48:31And you, too, cowboy.
48:32Come on, Ben.
48:52Drop it, kid.
48:58Look up, Ben, too!
48:59Don't leave me.
49:20I'm hurt.
49:22Nobody's leaving, Flit.
49:23I got the back all covered.
49:30The meat rack is on its way.
49:40Damn.
49:41Damn!
49:43Frank, what about the gill?
49:47She's all right.
49:47Let her alone.
49:48Let her alone.
49:48Let her alone.
49:48Let her alone.
49:52It's been a half hour already.
49:57What do you suppose they're waiting for?
49:59Who knows?
50:00Maybe the policeman's ball.
50:02How is it?
50:04I don't know.
50:05It's a little numb.
50:07Should it be?
50:08You boys in there.
50:10You choppers.
50:11This is Lieutenant Fleming speaking.
50:13Now, you're surrounded and there's no escape.
50:17We don't want any more shooting.
50:18There's been enough already.
50:20So I'll give you just five minutes to come out of there with your hands up.
50:24Ladies and gentlemen, that was the voice of Lieutenant Frank Fleming speaking to the three boys who are trapped inside.
50:30Do you think they'll give themselves up, Lieutenant?
50:31I don't know.
50:33I sure hope so.
50:34And if they don't, then we'll just have to take them the hard way.
50:38I see.
50:38Thank you, Lieutenant.
50:40For the benefit of those who have just tuned in, this is Jim Bradford with another on-the-spot broadcast coming to you from the Big Deal Junkyard,
50:47where three young car strippers have been cornered and are awaiting capture.
50:52Now, I've just been informed that the father of one of the boys trapped inside is here.
50:59I'll see if I can get him to say something.
51:02Excuse me, sir.
51:03Oh, a reporter, huh?
51:05Well, that's all right.
51:06We won't bother about it now.
51:07It ain't no bother.
51:08Did you tell everybody my boy Torch is in there?
51:11No, I didn't.
51:12Well, then how's anybody going to know it's him?
51:15They got my boy Torch, Torch Lester in there.
51:19The smart cops think they got him.
51:21Please, Mr. Lester.
51:22What's the matter?
51:23This is a free country, ain't it?
51:25Can't I talk?
51:26I want to tell the whole world something.
51:29Those cops ain't going to take my boy Torch.
51:32There ain't enough cops in the whole world to take my boy Torch.
51:38You hear me?
51:39They ain't going to take my boy Torch.
51:42Ladies and gentlemen, when you pick up your morning newspaper and read about some youngster getting into trouble and wonder why,
51:49I think you've heard one good answer.
51:53Frank, they've found a couple of places where they can drop over the fence.
51:56Can I find this in the kid's car?
51:59Well, what do you know?
51:59A rigged up transmitter.
52:01Just think of what that kid might have been, huh?
52:03Yeah, too bad.
52:06Well, they have one minute left.
52:08I'd better tell them.
52:10You have one minute.
52:12One minute left.
52:15Now give yourselves up.
52:16Don't make us come in and get you.
52:18Listen to that foes.
52:19Next thing you know, they'll be crying.
52:21Yeah, they're all alike.
52:23They just want to get us out in the open so they can cut us down.
52:26Would they do that?
52:27Sure they would, but they're not going to get a chance.
52:30This pile of iron's like a fort.
52:31We can stay here forever.
52:33Well, at least till we get hungry.
52:36Time's up.
52:39Well, looky here.
52:48How about that?
52:50You shooting?
52:51No.
52:51What?
52:54Something wrong with the cowboy's gun?
52:59There's nothing wrong with this.
53:00Here.
53:03Look.
53:05I think we've got to give up.
53:06We can't get out of here and you know it.
53:08So we take a couple of lousy cops with us.
53:10Well, what will that get us?
53:11The gas chamber.
53:12He's right, and I don't want to go out that way.
53:14So you're yellow.
53:15No, and I'm not stupid either.
53:17So we had a ball stealing hubcaps and then starting after the big stuff.
53:20But the ball's over.
53:21At least let's get out of this alive.
53:23Now who's stupid?
53:25I just killed a cop.
53:27And the law says you two help me.
53:29Chew on that.
53:31I wish I'd never seen Moose.
53:33I wish I hadn't brought Gypsy in this.
53:35We give up.
54:04We're coming out.
54:08Well, it's all over, ladies and gentlemen.
54:25What started with the theft of a pair of hubcaps has ended in the violent deaths of five persons.
54:31How do you feel, son?
54:32I ain't saying nothing until I get a mouthpiece.
54:36How about it?
54:37Port!
54:38Knock it off, Pop.
54:39Find someone else to buy you a booze.
54:41You got anything to say, son?
54:52Yeah.
54:53We had a ball.
54:54A real ball.
55:05That's the story of the Choppers.
55:07The three boys left alive face jail and disgrace.
55:11One probably imprisonment for life.
55:13This is Jim Bradford saying goodbye for now.
55:16The three boys left.
55:46The three boys left.
55:48The three boys left.
56:05It's been a ball.
Commenti
